Containers and the RDF Model (A3) from Dan Brickley on 2001-05-18 (w3c-rdfcore-wg@w3.org from May 2001) (original) (raw)

Regarding http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-rdfcore-wg/2001May/0084.html RDFCore WG 2001-05-18 Teleconference Agenda action review A3:

A3: Ora Lassilla/ send analysis (#rdf-container-syntax-ambiguity and
    Dan Brickley  #rdf-containers-syntax-vs-schema)to rdfcore-wg list

I wrote up some brief notes on my Hong Kong discussion w/ Ora last week, sent them to Ora and the www-archive list archiver rather than this list. I wouldn't call this a full analysis of the problem w/ the container model, but the note is at:

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2001May/0000.html

Excerpted conclusion:

[[ Two problems are posed by this formulation:

This situation is in tension with a broad design goal of RDF: to allow Web services to aggregate and process partial descriptions. ]]

We (Ora and I) do not yet make any suggestions as to how to deal with this problem.
